Talk:Black Album (Kino album)

Kukusha, is this a war song?
Is kukusha war song or has it become a war song? Andries (talk) 22:41, 4 November 2017 (UTC)


 * Never heard of Kukushka being a war song. Maybe it's become a war song in current post-Soviet culture, but I don't think it was intentional on Kino or Tsoi's part. Tsoi's songs are often very abstract. Their meanings are few and many at the same time, and very dependant on interpretation. Alyuminevye ogurtsy (Aluminum Cucumbers) was a popular song from their first album, 45, that many fans made many meanings for, including a popular interpretaiton that it was about the (then current) Soviet-Afghan War, from the perspective of a bomber pilot. Later, Tsoi revealed that the song was written to throw off listeners and had no real meaning of its own. So, who can say? AndreyKva (talk) 06:10, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
 * Apparently, it is now considered a war song, since its use in the Battle for Sevastopol OST. The version heard there was performed by a Polina Gagarina. If I'll be honest, I'm really not a big fan of that version. No-one does Kino better than Kino, and no-one does Tsoi better than Tsoi already has. But then again, if all music was Kino, then music wouldn't be very interesting. Either way, it definitely deserves a mention somewhere on the page. AndreyKva (talk) 09:06, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
 * May be Zemfira too. "War song" or "battle song" is on second thoughts a personal subjective interpretation without sources. Andries (talk) 15:13, 11 November 2017 (UTC)

Black Album
The album is known throughout Russia and other post-Soviet states as the Black Album, to the point where it's the name of the Russian article for it and is even the official name that the copyright holders use. I think the page should be moved to Black Album (Kino album). AndreyKva (talk) 06:10, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
